Be counted as a Manitoba neuroscientist and extend advances in equity, diversity and inclusion
by info＠manitobaneuroscience.ca 05 Jan '21

05 Jan '21

Dear Colleagues, I circulated a link to the very brief equity, diversity and inclusion survey for the new Canadian Brain Research Strategy (CBRS) initiative. Thank you to those of you who completed it. For those who have not, please consider doing so. Not only does this help leaders underpin the entire CBRS with critical consideration to EDI, but it also allows each of us to be counted as a neuroscientist who calls Manitoba home. As a group, we are sometimes disappointed that national colleagues do not know that we work in a robust neuroscience environment in Manitoba. Let's all take this simple step toward ensuring we take out proper place on the national scene. This includes FACULTY, PROFESSIONALS, STAFF and TRAINEES. Here is a link to the EDI survey. It will take no longer than 3 minutes to complete. English EDI survey: https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_7PXWZImUSzYplqZ The password is: CBRSEDI! French EDI survey: https://qfreeaccountssjc1.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0ue3M03YAUwwA9T The password is: CBRSEDI! Thank you! Please make sure trainees and staff in your groups receive this message and are subscribed to this email list. Chris Anderson MNN Director ****************************************** <http://www.manitobaneuroscience.ca/> <https://www.facebook.com/manitobaneuroscience/?fref=ts> <https://www.instagram.com/manitobaneuroscience/> <https://twitter.com/manitobaneuro>
